Ingredients
>
1 (16.5 oz) tube Pillsbury ™ Sugar Cookie Dough
>
4 tbsp all-purpose flour, divided, plus more for dusting
>
Red food coloring
>
Blue food coloring
Steps
1
Divide the sugar cookie dough evenly into 2 pieces. To 2 medium bowls, add 1 dough half and 2 tbsp flour each. Add a few drops of red food coloring to one bowl and a few drops of blue food coloring to the other bowl. Mix each dough until the color and flour are fully incorporated. Wrap dough pieces in plastic and chill 1 hour, until firm.
2
On a lightly floured work surface, break off walnut-size chunks of red dough and blue dough and scatter evenly. Top with a large sheet of wax or parchment paper. With rolling pin, roll to ⅛-inch thickness. Remove paper and, with 3-inch star cookie cutters or star cutters in various sizes, cut out shapes. Arrange on a large parchment-lined cookie sheet, spacing 1 inch apart. Continue scattering, rolling, and cutting out cookies from remaining dough (carefully reroll dough only 1 time, taking care not to overmix the colors). Chill 30 min.
3
Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake each sheet of cookies 8–10 min., until edges are set. Cool completely on wire rack. To store, keep in a sealed container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
Tips
For more vibrant colors in the cookies, use gel food dye.
